Chris Wright Walking With My Eyes Closed
[Verse 1]
A street vendor petals on the sidewalk (Aye)
A man walks by made of white chalk (Ooh)
A sculpture they built out of light conversations that fell when I passed so it's my fault (Huh)
A head chef smokes by a side door
Pupils miss behaving like an eyesore (Aye calm down)
A new couple trips on their own fascinations who fell as I passed but they might sore
[Chorus 1]
All the lights in the sky can't hold themselves
I'm so wrapped up in myself that I can't help with the weight they bear just tell them they should buy shelves
[Verse 2]
An old man's cane on his last leg
A woman selling tickets to a nice bed (Aww)
A man of many mysteries and all of his patrons who fell as I passed saw they write checks (Co si co si!)
An empty jar waiting by a street performer (Bing)
A businesswoman trying to get her things in order (Woah Woah)
A man was running chasing down a taxi in the city street who fell as I passed saw him chip his shoulder (Agh)
[Chorus 2]
All the clouds in the sky can't hold themselves
I'm so wrapped up in myself that I didn't feel when the rain came down I felt cold and my cold didn't really help
[Verse 3]
Why do I never plan ahead
I leave the house so fast sometimes forget my head
My mom called my phone said I need my rest
And when my dad called my phone well he left a message instead
I walk a long road to work see the people I pass (Aye)
Now there's a part of me that really like to live in the past
I'm over thinking when I'm thinking I forget to wash my feet
I tripped and fell as the people walked past
